Cement kiln dust, a waste material in the cement industry, contains partially processed raw materials. This paper reports an investigation into its usage in concrete as a partial replacement for cement. The percentages of cement replacement by weight were 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 in cement paste and 0, 15, 25, 35 and 45 in both 1:1.5:3 and 1:2:4 concretes. The results showed that the kiln dust is a cementitious material and it causes the following effects when used as cement replacement: 1. 1. retards the setting of cement; 2. 2. increases the water demand for a constant consistency; and 3. 3. decreases the concrete strength. For the same workability concrete, cement can be replaced by up to 15 per cent with cement kiln dust without causing significant strength loss. © 1982.
